Just uBlock.
Not much myself to be honest.
- uBlock Origin, to make the web a bearable experience
- Yomichan for learning Japanese
And that’s it. I don’t really need much more.
- uBlock Origin
- I still don’t care about cookies
- Simple Translate
- Tabliss
- Fast Forward
-uBlock Origin
-Sponsorblock
-Unhook for youtube
-unpinterested
-panicbutton
Also adguard dns filtering on my mobile devices. Would highly recommend panicbutton as a quick way to set a task aside without opening a new window and unhook to filter out the trash YouTube is shoveling onto the home page
I use Firefox and the arkenfox user.js, which is not an extension, but helps with privacy. For the extensions, though, they are as follows:
- uBlock Origin // on medium mode (Check out what blocking modes are if you don’t know them already)
- LibRedirect // to redirect to more privacy respecting alternatives
- Skip Redirect // for increased privacy in terms of redirects
- Smart Referer // on strict mode. I use this as I have set network.http.referer.XOriginPolicy to 0 as 2 was a little too strict for me
I think more extensions than these would probably hurt my setup. I have followed the advice from the arkenfox wiki. Check it out if you want to look into a more private and secure Firefox configuration. Also feel free to criticize or ask questions about my setup :)

Browser: Firefox, gonna name stuff i don’t see mentioned yet
‘Multi Account Containers’ + ‘Container Tabs Sidebar’ + ‘Switch Container’ + ‘Temporary Containers’ +
‘don’t care about cookies’‘Consent-o-matic’
basically allows you to easily have multiple accounts on websites while also making sure everything stays contained to its own bubble, and anything I don’t have a dedicated container for gets a temporary container that deletes the cookies after a bitin order for me to both not care about cookies and also not get any cookies.at this point mostly because I don’t like accidentally having an account on a non-contained instanceff2mpv - easily launch videos in mpv, requires a bit of setup
Image Search Options - finding the source of most drawings, spotting which anime a clip is from etc
Yomichan for quick access to locally installed dictionaries (for Japanese in this case)

A bunch of other key extensions already listed, but what I don’t see that I use often is redirector. It lets you put in regex patterns to redirect window locations to another destination. For example I’ve used it to redirect any
reddit.com
link toold.reddit.com
, use it to remove tracking parameters from URLS, redirectyoutube
toyewtube
, etc.For sake of the thread though, here’s a short list I have on all systems
- Redirector
- Ublock Origin
- Firefox multi containers
- Bitwarden
- Ghunt companion
- Leech block
- Noscript
Used to have
- RES
- Modtoolbox
- Privacy Badger
- HTTPS everywhere
Assuming this doesn’t work on Firefox mobile yet? To achieve the same I switched my search to a selfhosted whoogle where i rewrite urls to invidious and nitter and shit
It does not have a mobile Firefox extension yet, no. That would be really nice though.
Looking at the comments, interest in privacy and adblocking seem high. But the actual addons suggested here are often redundant or even worse, make you easier to track. Instead, take a look at the Arkenfox wiki, which is more or less the gold standard for browser privacy. Both LibreWolf and Mullvad Browser, practically the most privacy/anonymity oriented browsers out there, right behind Tor, either rely on it or stick very closely to it.
I highly recommend reading the entire wiki from the start. You dont have to do everything it says, obviously, but even if you dont do anything it will give you a better understanding of browser privacy. And lastly, do not use Chrome or any chromium based browser if you care about privacy and a free and open internet. Even if you only use a chromium based browser, you help increase googles monopoly.Thank you 00 and crius for introducing Mullvad. Been looking for a VPN that doesn’t lock you into any subscription plans.
Mullvad VPN is great! Though I was talking about the Mullvad Browser (which is great as well and integrates well with their VPN service).
An extra thumbs up for mullvad vpn from me. It’s a bit more costly than the mainstream ones but you don’t have to subscribe to any plan. Just pay month by month, absolutely no personal data needed.

uBlock does so much more than one would think. Where’s a good list of all the additional capabilities / lists that go beyond just the ad-blocking?
I was hoping to receive a comment like this, since I rarely remove an addon once I installed it cause I keep thinking there must have been some reason why I did long ago.
Oh and I have a Pihole on top of all those blockers…But I am confused about Cookie Autodelete. I know if I don’t whitelist a website then as soon as I close the tab I am no longer logged in if I go back, so it must be deleting cookies right?
